Watch on Deadline
EDDIE HAMILTON: 800 to 814 hours.

But the main thing is to try and stay calm and not get overwhelmed.
Literally every night Id go to sleep and all I would see is their faces in my dreams.
Thats just how engrossed you get in the raw material and in the project that you are doing.
Plus, the immense pressure of delivering this sequel after 30 years and wanting it to be brilliant.
DEADLINE: What was it like cutting together footage for those the scenes with the cameras in the jets?
HAMILTON: You know, they filmed the interiors months before they filmed the exteriors.
So it was actually really difficult because I was having to imagine what the exteriors were gonna be.
It was very hard to watch for ages, and it required a lot of imagination.
Every aerial sequence started way longer originally.
We always wanted it to be this kind of punchy, exciting, dynamic, fun, entertaining sequence.
And it was the last thing we finished in the last week of the final mix.
